E&C EC17 Gen4 Gas Blowback Airsoft Pistol in Black

If you’re looking for a clean, no-fuss airsoft sidearm that blends reliability, realism, and ready-to-skirmish performance, the E&C EC17 Gen4 hits all the right marks. Based on the ever-popular G17 Gen4 platform, this gas blowback pistol delivers dependable operation in a lightweight, ergonomic package — ideal for players who want a modern pistol that simply gets the job done, no gimmicks required.

Externally, the EC17 gets the Gen4 styling spot-on. The stippled-textured grip and finger grooves offer excellent handling, while the polymer frame helps keep the weight down without sacrificing strength. The slide and outer barrel are full metal, giving the pistol a balanced, authentic feel in hand. Each shot delivers crisp blowback action, delivering a nice snap and recoil that adds to the immersion without being excessive.

Performance-wise, this gas blowback pistol runs on standard green gas and pushes out a respectable 290–320 FPS using 0.20g BBs — perfect for both CQB and outdoor play. Whether you're clearing rooms or drawing as a backup in the field, the EC17 is quick to aim and faster to cycle. It’s a responsive pistol that feels at home in any loadout.

The adjustable hop-up system sits under the slide, allowing you to dial in BB trajectory with ease. Paired with the 97mm inner barrel, the pistol delivers tight groupings at typical engagement distances. It’s the kind of accuracy that lets you confidently take the shot, whether it’s a quick tap at 5 metres or a measured aim at 20.

Included in the box is a 26-round gas magazine, built to feed smoothly and consistently. Reloads are quick and intuitive, especially if you’re already familiar with Glock-style platforms. The EC17 runs in semi-auto only, with no unnecessary selector switches to get in the way — it’s a simple, focused tool that just works.

This isn’t a flashy, accessory-packed pistol — and that’s the point. With no outer barrel threading, it skips the need for suppressors or tracers and leans into a straightforward, mission-ready build. For players running military, LE, or PMC-style kits, the EC17 fits right in. It’s also a fantastic pick for anyone wanting a reliable sidearm that won’t hog gas or throw surprises during a game.

The E&C EC17 Gen4 is ideal for intermediate players looking for a solid GBB with proven form and function. Lightweight, tough, and well-balanced, it’s a workhorse pistol that doesn’t need bells and whistles to prove its worth. And if you see it cheaper anywhere else — we’ll beat that price, no questions asked.
